A Pancake Journal

If one is ever lacking for subjects to sketch, breakfast is always a possibility. The site Pancakes Across America has a set of galleries of pencil sketches of pancakes from many breakfast places across the country. For instance, here is a sketch of a three-stack of buttermilk pancakes eaten in Bardstown, Kentucky.

I’m not sure what subject would make a good culinary travel journal for me. Burritos, perhaps?

  1. On a related topic, you might be interested in “Waiting for Food” by R. Crumb—a collection of sketches done on diner placemats.

    Not sketches of the food—but whatever was around him, or flying around in his head, while waiting for breakfast and supper.

  2. Thanks for posting this. I’ve been meaning to make breakfast website for years now and this inspires me to keep the dream alive. And the Minneapolis/St. Paul pancake map is brilliant. I can’t wait to tell my friends and family in the Twin Cities.
